Palma del Río > Córdoba 110km Due to extreme heat, the stage has been reduced to just 110km. The start and finish are the same, they’ve removed a big chunk from the middle of the stage.

Larciano > Larciano 197km The 48th edition of the race, last year, Isaac Del Toro outsprinted Christian Scaroni for the win. This year, the startlist looks very strong, I’m expecting an exciting race. The mix is interesting, quite a few are racing for the first time since the Tour, but a few come here with a...

Earlston > Earlston 159km The final stage of the Tour of Britain and the race has made the journey up to the south of Scotland. Most of the day takes place in the Borders, they do head north but once the first categorised climb is done, they head back south. This part of the world...

Jaén > Sierra de la Pandera 155km Another big day in terms of the right for red as Enric Mas looks to put more time into Primož Roglič. This is the last opportunity for the Spaniard to increase the gap before the 32km ITT on Thursday of next week. At 155km, it’s a relatively short...

Helmsley > Leyburn 166km The big GC day in the Tour of Britain. There are three classified climbs, but as the last one crests with 40km to go, how this stage plays out isn’t easy to predict.

Almuñécar > Loja 193km One of those days which is 100% certain to go the way of the break. The hardest bits of the stage comes at the start, the easier finish does increase the chances of a surprise winner.

Hull > Beverley 196km Merlier got his expected win today, he’ll be hoping to double up in this stage. The race moves up the coast into Yorkshire, for what should be another sprint.

Vera > Calar Alto 167km Back to the mountains we go. 

Boston > Skegness 181km Day 2 and the race heads to Skegness, a holiday town on the east coast of England. It’s the flattest stage of the race and should end in a sprint, but the wind might play a part.

Cartagena > Lorca 154km Well then, Visma did go for Van Aert, but it really didn’t work out. After burning through all their men, Van Aert struggled to get a good position and Tronchon took a great win. Stage 11 is another one for the fast men, will Visma go back to Brennan or stick...
